SD/SDIO/MMC Driver
Overview
The SD/SDIO/MMC driver currently supports SD memory, SDIO cards, and eMMC chips. This is a protocol level driver built on top of SDMMC and SD SPI host drivers.
SDMMC and SD SPI host drivers (driver/sdmmc/include/driver/sdmmc_host.h and driver/spi/include/driver/sdspi_host.h) provide API functions for:
Sending commands to slave devices
Sending and receiving data
Handling error conditions within the bus
For functions used to initialize and configure:
SD SPI host, see SD SPI Host API
Pin Configurations
..only:: SOC_SDMMC_USE_IOMUX and not SOC_SDMMC_USE_GPIO_MATRIX
SDMMC pins are dedicated, you don't have to configure the pins.
..only:: SOC_SDMMC_USE_GPIO_MATRIX and not SOC_SDMMC_USE_IOMUX
SDMMC pin signals are routed via GPIO Matrix, so you will need to configure the pins in
sdmmc_slot_config_t
.
..only:: esp32p4
SDMMC have two slots:
slot 0 pins are dedicated for UHS-I mode. This is not yet supported in the driver.
slot 1 pins are routed via GPIO Matrix, and it's for non UHS-I usage. You will need to configure the pins in
sdmmc_slot_config_t
to use the slot 1.
Application Example
An example which combines the SDMMC driver with the FATFS library is provided in the storage/sd_card directory of ESP-IDF examples. This example initializes the card, then writes and reads data from it using POSIX and C library APIs. See README.md file in the example directory for more information.
Combo (Memory + IO) Cards
The driver does not support SD combo cards. Combo cards are treated as IO cards.
Thread Safety
Most applications need to use the protocol layer only in one task. For this reason, the protocol layer does not implement any kind of locking on the sdmmc_card_t
structure, or when accessing SDMMC or SD SPI host drivers. Such locking is usually implemented on a higher layer, e.g., in the filesystem driver.

out_buffer -- Output buffer of the CIS data
buffer_size -- Size of the buffer.
inout_cis_size -- Mandatory, pointer to a size, input and output.
input: Limitation of maximum searching range, should be 0 or larger than buffer_size. The function searches for CIS_CODE_END until this range. Set to 0 to search infinitely.
output: The size required to store all the CIS data, if CIS_CODE_END is found.
- Returns
ESP_OK: on success
ESP_ERR_INVALID_RESPONSE: if the card does not (correctly) support CIS.
ESP_ERR_INVALID_SIZE: CIS_CODE_END found, but buffer_size is less than required size, which is stored in the inout_cis_size then.
ESP_ERR_NOT_FOUND: if the CIS_CODE_END not found. Increase input value of inout_cis_size or set it to 0, if you still want to search for the end; output value of inout_cis_size is invalid in this case.
